Realising the Benefits of Web 2.0 in Financial Services September 22, 2009

The Social Media Explosion
The last two years have seen explosive growth in the use of Web 2.0 and social media. Visitors to the Twitter network are by now expected to exceed 10 million (from only 475,000 in February 2008) Facebook now has more than 200 million active members – almost as many as the population of the USA.

If this is communications revolution, what does that mean for financial institutions in the UK? - This conference will provide answers to that question.

New Business Models
Global corporations like Dell and Nike are driving major change programmes to take advantage of this new communications channel.
In the USA, new (and apparently successful) business models have emerged in the financial services sector, made possible by the power of social networks. The UK has seen the rise of Zopa, the ‘social bank’.

Why this Event?
With few exceptions, financial services organisations in the UK find themselves attracted by the possibilities offered by social media, unsure of exactly how to use them, but certain they don’t want to be left behind.
This timely event, designed exclusively for financial services organisations, will provide clear and practical insights into:
• What possibilities Web 2.0 and social media offer your business
• How financial institutions are already making use of them
• What the future holds
• How you can prepare for it.
